An angled large wheel and out-of-line roller skate having an engineered plastic frame forming fore and aft downwardly-angled openings extending in a lateral direction in lateral frame members. Each of the openings has secured therein an end of a respective fore or aft axle, each of which in turn rotatably supports a canted fore or aft wheel. Each of the wheels has an engineered-plastic wheel hub and a tire thereon. The axles each have stepped configurations corresponding to the stepped configurations of their respective frame openings. Axle nuts at the ends of the axles are secured relative to the frame by respective retainer clips. The fastener securing the fore retainer clip to the frame can also secure a frame cap to the top toe end of the frame. Wheelwashers having outward stepped configurations are sandwiched between the frame and the bearing races of the wheels. A pair of tapered posts extend laterally out from the boot cradle, which is attached to the frame, and towards the rear wheel. The openings of a wheelguard are fitted onto the posts and screwed thereto. The brake arm assembly is attached at one end to the frame and has a recessed area proximate to and for the rear wheel.
